  • Famous for the fact that Tony Blair (former Prime Minister of Great Britian) and his family moved here after they had to give up their several free "tied" houses that came with his job. His new neighbours were most unimpressed (if press reports are correct) due to the continued police and media pressence
  • In fact, I mark the place of their house...of course some idiot deleted. One of the reason I left London..F..g people.
